In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small to wn about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one tRain a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I’d hitch a ride (搭便車).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使…放心)me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.

Scientists in Argentina have created the world’s first cow with two human genes that will enable it to produce human-like milk.
Genetic engineering was used to introduce the "mothers’milk" genes into the animal before birth, according to the National Institute of Agribusiness Technology in Buenos Aires.
As an adult, the cloned cow "will produce milk that is similar to that of humans", which will prove "a development of great importance for the nutrition of infants(嬰兒)", said the institute. "The cloned cow, named Rosita ISA, is the first in the world with two human genes that contain the proteins present in human milk," said the statement.
In April, scientists in China published details of research showing that they had created dairy cows which produced milk containing proteins found in human breast milk. But the Argentine team said the Chinese only introduced one human gene, while their research involved two, meaning the milk will more closely resemble that of humans.
“Our goal was to raise the nutrition value of cows’milk by adding two human genes, which do good to the immune system of infants,” said Adrian Mutto, from the National University of San Martin which worked with the institute.
Cristina Kirchner, President of Argentina, said that the scientific institute made all Argentines proud. She also said that she had rejected the "honor" of having the cow named after her. "They came to tell me that the name is Cristina, but what woman would like to have a cow named after her? It appeared to me to be more proper to call it Rosita.”
5. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The importance of genetic engineering.
B. Ways to improve mothers’ milk.
C. A cloned cow to produce human-like milk.
D. Advanced agricultural technology in Argentina.
6. Which of the following can best replace “more closely resemble” in Paragraph 4?
A. have more varieties than
B. be more similar to
C. have more nutrition than
D. be more different from
7. What can be inferred from Cristina Kirchner’s statements?
A. She was quite satisfied with the research done by the institute.
B. She considered it an honor to name the special cow.
C. She felt it improper to be named after the cow.
D. She refused to give a name to the cow out of self-respect.

Does Fame Drive You Crazy?
Although being famous might sound like a dream come true, today’s star, feeling like zoo animals, face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world’s attention. Paparazzi (狗仔隊) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小報) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature!
According to psychologist Christina Villareal, celebrities — famous people — worry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villareal says, “they feel separated and alone.”
The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B.C., painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain (抱怨) about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.
Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.
If fame is so troublesome, why aren’t all celebrities running away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.
Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.
8. It can be learned from the passage that stars today___________.
A. are often misunderstood by the public
B. can no longer have their privacy protected
C. spend too much on their public appearance
D. care little about how they have come into fame
is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Great heroes of the past were generally admired.
B. The problem faced by celebrities has a long history.
C. Well-known actors are usually targets of tabloids.
D. Works of popular writers often have a lot of readers.
10. What makes it much harder to be a celebrity today?
A. Availability of modern media.
B. Inadequate social recognition.
C. Lack of favorable chances.
D. Huge population of fans.
11. What is the author’s attitude toward modern celebrity?
ere. B. Sceptical. C. Disapproving. D. Sympathetic.

In my opinion, we first should have a balanced diet. Three regular meals are very important, especially breakfast. They can give us enough energy to carry out our daily activities. What’s more, we should eat enough fruit and vegetables because they are rich in vitamins, which are good for our health. We shouldn’t eat junk food. Finally, we had better drink enough water and milk. They are so necessary for us to build up our bodies.

A NATIONWIDE BESTSELLER
It’s likely that everything you learned about America’s ancient history is wrong.
The new book,1491, completely changes our understanding of the America before the arrival of Columbus in 1492.
DID YOU KNOW?
When Columbus landed there were probably more people in the Americas than there were in Europe.
The peoples of North America had such healthy life-styles that as late as the 19th century they continued to be the tallest people on earth.
Facts have shown that the Americas were populated as long as 33,000 years ago. 4,000 years ago Mesoamerican (中美洲)farmers developed corn in a feat (技藝) of genetic engineering that still isn’t completely understood.
COMMENTS ON 1491
“In the tradition of Jared Diamond & John MePhee, a totally new view of pre-Columbian America”.
-Richard Rhodes
“Attractively written and really absorbing, Charles has produced a book that’s part detective story, part epic(史詩) and part tragedy(悲劇). He has taken on a vast topic: thousands of years, two huge continents, and cultures.”
-Charles Matthews,San Jese Mercary News
“Powerful and challenging”
-Alan Taylor,Washingto post
“A pleasure to read as well as a wonderful education”
-Howard Zinn
21. On the whole,1491 is a book mainly about America’s________.
A. population B. life-styles C. agriculture D. history
22. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the comments on the book 1491?
A. It is interesting and instructive. B. It is attractive and culturally related.
C. It is challenging and revolutionary. D. It is humorous and persuasive
23. From this passage, we can learn_________.
A. North Americans were the tallest in the 18th century in the world
B. people settled in the America a little earlier than 1492
C. Mesoamencan farmers knew genetic engineering 5,000 years ago
D. the population in the Americas was smaller than that in Europe in 1492
B
The iPhone, the iPad: each of Apple’s products sounds cool and has become a fad(一時的風尚). Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter “i” –-- and many other brands are following suit. The BBC’s iPlayer --- which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet ---used the title in 2008. A lovely bear --- popular in the US and UK --- th at plays music and video is called “iTeddy”. A slimmed-down version(簡裝本) of London’s Independent newspaper was started last week under the name “i”.
In general, single-letter prefixes(前綴) have been popular since the 1990s, when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce(電子商務) first came into use.
Most “i” products are targeted at (針對)young people and considering the major readers of Independent’s “i”, it’s no surprise that they’ve selected this fashionable name.
But it’s hard to see what’s so special about the letter “i”. Why not use “a”, “b”, or “c” instead? According to Tony Thorne, head of the Language Center at King’s College, London, “i” works because its meaning has become ambiguous. When Apple uses “i”, no one knows whether it means Internet, information, individual or interactive, Thorne told BBC Magazines. “Even when Apple created the iPod, it seems it didn’t have one clear definition(定義),” he says.
“However, thanks to Apple, the term is now connected with portability (輕便) .”adds Thorne.
Clearly the letter “i” also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual. Each person believes they have their own needs, and we love personalized products for this reason.
Along with “Google” and “blog”, readers of BBC Magazines voted “i” as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade(十年).
But as history shows, people grow tired of fads. From the 1900s to 1990s, products with “2000” in their names became fashionable as the year was connected with all things advanced and modern. However, as we entered the new century, the fashion disappeared.
24. We can infer that the Independent’s “i” is designed for _________.
A. old readers B. young readers
C. fashionable women D. engineers
25. The underlined word “ambiguous” means “__________”.
A. popular B. clear C. uncertain D. unique
26. Nowadays, the “i” term often reminds people of the products which are __________.
A. po rtable B. environmentally friendly C. advanced D. recyclable
27. The writer suggests that __________.
A. “i” products are often of high quality
B. iTeddy is alive bear
C. the letter “b” replaces letter “i” to name the products
D. the popularity of “i” products may not last long
C
The average American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous (荒謬的) sayings have appeared:
TV makes kids stupid. Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.
TV makes kids violent. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好鬥的). But a study of over 5,000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age.
Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight. An experiment finds that when children watch less television, they do lose extra weight; however, redu cing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食), a widespread habit for kids, and junk-food advertisements.
TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap(小睡) patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.
28. Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?
A. They will improve children’s ability to get along with others.

Like human beings, dogs may catch cold because of cold weather, wet conditions or can also get it from other sick dogs. If a dog has a running nose and watery eyes, coughs or sneezes(打噴嚏), then it is quite probable that the dog has caught cold.
A dog's cold can get over after a few days without treatment but it totally depends upon the owner to treat it with medications or improve its immune power (免疫力) to get rid of the cold naturally. Following are some of the things you can do if your dog gets a cold.
You can improve its immune power by giving it proper nutrient diet. Healthy food can really do wonders. Try to give it food which is either suggested by the vet(獸醫) or is healthy for your pet. Increase the intake of food which is rich in vitamins A, C and E.
Keep your dog warm. The best place for your dog in winter is inside your house. Do not keep your dog outside when it is cold and wet. At home you can also keep the dog warm with the help of carpets. This will make him comfortable and help him to recover fast.
Increase the fluid(流質)intake as it helps a lot. Water can be the best choice but you can also add broth(肉湯)in water which will give your dog strength. Warm water will make your dog more comfortable and will also keep the dog away from the respiratory infections(呼吸道感染).
Steam treatment is considered to be effective in getting rid of cold. It makes the nasal(鼻的) passage wet, which helps proper breathing. Just fill your bathroom with steam and leave your dog inside the bathroom for 15 minutes. Do it nearly 2 to 3 times a day and you will see your dog recovering.
These are some of the things you can do to help your dog recover from cold. However, if you are not able to find any improvement in its health, then turn to the vet for help immediately. Take your dog for regular checkups so as to avoid complications(併發症).
32. From the first paragraph we know about __________.
A. the difficulty in keeping a dog as a pet
B acteristics of sick dogs
C similarities between dogs and human beings
D. causes and symptoms(症狀)of cold in dogs
33. When your dog catches cold, you should feed it on _______.
A suggested food by the vet B. its favorite food
C. some meat and water D. food rich in vitamin B
34. When a dog catches cold, it is wrong to ________.
A. keep it inside during cold and wet weather
B. leave it inside the bathroom full of steam
C. let it eat too much solid food
D. keep it sleeping on rugs at home
35. It can be learnt from the text that _________.
A. a dog’s cold can always disappear naturally
B. it’s quite easy to make a sick dog recover from cold
C. treating a dog’s cold sometimes needs a vet’s help
D. cold in dogs won’t spread between each other.

One advantage of the Internet is shopping conveniently online for clothes; one disadvantage of the Internet is also shopping conveniently online for clothes.
“Nothing fits,” said Lam Yuk Wong, a senior in electrical and computer engineering at Rice University. “Everyone says this. They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”
Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtual (虛擬)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got t he right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.
Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image(影像) into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.
Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important to men.”
5. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadv antage?
A. Students may easily get addicted to it.
B. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.
C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.
D. Clothes bought online may not fit.
6. Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.
A. their shopping experiences B. a program at their university
C. some shop-owners’ complaints D. the Xbox 360 video game player
7. Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?
A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting images
B. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanning
C. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanning
D. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes
8. What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?
A. It is perfectly developed. B. It will have its market share(佔有率).
C. It is limited to women shoppers. D. It is like a kind of video game player.
C
My parents moved to Mississippi when my brother and I were small children, and we were separated from our Oklahoma grandparents by some 600 miles. This geographic distance allowed us to only visit our grandparents once a year, either at Christmas or during summer vacation.
Most of my classmates lived near their grandparents, and I would routinely hear stories of extended families(大家庭)regularly spending time with one another, fishing at “grandpa’s” house or going over to “grandma’s” for her famous fried chicken. We were disappointed that we did not get to spend more time with our grandparents, but our love for them remained deep and strong.
We always expected a road trip to Oklahoma. We would count the days, and when Day I came, the entire family would pile into the car at four o’clock in the morning. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, the landscapes (風景)changed. Crossing the Red River in Oklahoma, we were in a foreign world.
Every trip to see my grandparents can’t be without bringing delight. We jumped out of the car in their driveway to be met with bear hugs. My grandparents wanted to know everything about their grandchildren, and we would sit for hours and tell story after story. Grandma had a meal planned, and you could bet she fixed her grandsons’ favorite foods. Of course the best part of the visit was that we were able to do whatever we wanted without punishment from our grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa always had presents for us, neat scenic trips planned and lovely surprises, such as the time we got to go to a local restaurant and eat the world’s largest hamburger.
9. The family don’t visit the grandparents often because _______ __.
A. they live far away from each other B. they seldom have a vacation
C. they are all busy with their work D. they have a bad attitude to them
10. Whenever the author and his brother met their grandparents, they ________.
A. shared cooking skills with each other B. found they were in a foreign world
C. were all full of great excitement D. seemed not to be familiar with each other
11. What can we infer from the author’s story?
A. Distance leads to the most beautiful scene.
B. Physical separation (實際的分離) hurts the heart deeply.
C. Distance can’t break the bond (紐帶) of love.
D. Family life is filled with love and understanding.
D
Vacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it’s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well.
“The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized(有活力的),” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they’re not coming back with new energy. They haven’t had a chance to step back and get perspective(遠景), and come back with renewed enthusiasm(熱情).”
Long working hours without a break, insecurity(不安)about one’s job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. Humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.
“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they’re there,” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees’ productivity, creativity, and effectiveness.
I n addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employee’s pocketbook. Even people who manager to remain productive at work can have problems. If they’re always at work, then they’re not with their family and friends. If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present.
An unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you come up for air, you may see that you’re alone, or that your r elationships have gone on without you.
12. The underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.
A. the vacation B. the university
C. the company D. the home
13. What’s the main benefit of a vacation?
A. The worker can step back and get more excited
B. The worker can come back with new energy.
C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.
D. The manager can be more creative.
14. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more__________ .
A. active B. energetic C. skillful D. absent-minded
15. Which of the following is the best title of the text?
A. Why the workers need new energy. B. How to deal with the daily pressure.
C. How to spend the vacation effectively. D. Why the workers need a vacation.

Speaking is not equal to learning
1. You don’t need to study grammar too much. The first suggestion may sound strange to many students who begin to learn English, but it is exactly important. 16 However, if you want to speak fluently, you should try to speak English without thinking too much of grammar. Studying grammar will only slow you down and make you hesitate. You will think about the grammar rules instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native.
2. You can’t translate every word.
When you try to speak English, you do not have to translate every word from your mother tongue. 17 Another problem you may meet is that you will misuse grammar rules that you have learned in your mother language.
3. 18
The reason why many people can learn well is that they often practice. But in order to speak English fluently, you need to practice speaking. When you study, do not just listen. Speak out loud the material you are listening to and practice what you hear. Practice speaking out loud until your mouth and brain can do it without any effort. 19
4. You should study correct material.
A phrase you often hear is, “practice makes perfect.” this is not completely true. Practice only makes what you are practicing permanent. If you practice the incorrect sentence, you will have perfected saying the sentence incorrectly. 20
A. You should try to speak fluently.
B. You need to practice what you hear.
C. By doing so, you will be able to speak English fluently.
D. If you want to pass ex amination, you should study grammar well.
E. If you listen more, you can speak correctly and fluently sooner or later.
F. Therefore, it is important that you study material that is commonly used by most people.
G. The order of words is probably completely different and you may be both slow and incorrect by doing this.

There have also a lot of museums where you can learn something you can’t learn it in school. I’d also like to see the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building. Fortunately, the twin towers destroyed on September 11th, 2001 or I would have the chance to see them by myself. Now I am getting ready for the excited trip.
I bet it will be a unforgettable experience.

Dear Mr. Evans,
I am indeed sorry to tell you that I won’t be able to attend the lecture on English history tomorrow afternoon. My mother suddenly fell ill and was taken to hospital last night and my fat her is on a business trip to Beijing now. I am afraid that I will have to take care of her these days.
However, I am actually very interested in English society and history. I wonder if it is possible for the talk to be recorded, and if so, could I borrow the tape? It would mean a great deal to me to listen to the tape and learn what is covered in the talk.
Please allow me to say sorry again. I sincerely hope that you will be able to understand my situation and accept my apology.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
